Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada spearheaded an international declaration denouncing state-sponsored arbitrary detentions because of China's decision to imprison Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor.

Trudeau made the connection for the first time Friday during a federal election campaign appearance in Windsor, Ont.

But on Friday, when asked about Canada's exclusion from a new American-Australian-British alliance on intelligence sharing in the Indo-Pacific region, Trudeau touted a number of other Canadian geopolitical alliances, including its historic role in NATO and its relatively new effort on calling out state-sponsored arbitrary detention.

China has accused the two men of being spies, a claim rejected by Canada and its allies. The arrests are widely viewed as retaliation for the RCMP's December 2018 arrest of Chinese high-tech executive Meng Wanzhou on an American extradition request. The unexpected new alliance announced earlier this week between the U.S., the U.K. and Australia, known as AUKUS, raised questions internationally, and in Canada and the U.S.

China, France angered by Australia’s nuclear sub pact with U.S., BritainChina’s foreign minister says the sub pact risks ‘damaging international nuclear non-proliferation effort’ Oh that’s too bad. It’s also too bad that at one time Canada and Australia had similar military capabilities. Similar budgets. Canada isn’t part of this deal because we don’t invest in our military, and the US knows it. They monitor our waters, and we can’t do anything about it.
